Perhaps one of the greatest wrestlers in Boston State history,
Louis Mancini '73 was a four-year letter winner with the
Warriors. During one of the most distinguished careers in the
program's history, Mancini posted an undefeated 42-0 record in
dual matches. Named a three-time co-captain by his coaching
staff and teammates, Mancini was perhaps the greatest competitor in
the 142 lbs. weight class.

As a sophomore, Mancini led the Warriors to a third place finish
at the New England State College Athletic Conference (NESCAC)
championship tournament. It was in that year that Mancini
notched his first conference championship, with a win in the 142
lbs. division. He was selected as the tournament’s Most
Valuable Player as well. Named a two-time team MVP, Mancini
closed out his college career with an overall record of
48-5.

In the classroom, Mancini earned a pair of bachelor’s
degrees, first earning his BS in Physical Education from Boston
State. He then earned his BS in Art from Framingham State
College. Mancini then spent the next 30 plus years coaching
high school wrestling, cross-country, and track and
field.

After a 33-year career at Ashland High School in Ashland,
Massachusetts, Mancini retired from the education system.
However his dedication to children has not waivered as he continues
to sponsor physical fitness programs for the children of
Ashland.

Today, Mancini owns and operates his own business, Mancini
Signs. He and his wife Geri still live in Ashland with their
three children Michelle, Brenda, and Paul. They are also the
proud grandparents of five grandchildren.
